Re: Re Barbara/: Sue/Kate Question (one last time)

[Guest guest]

Hi Barbara,

I'm hoping my Rheumy will agree with it but am afraid the first few will

have to be done by her and not my GP. I'm assuming she'll want it that way

to make sure things go the way she hopes with no adverse effects. Gosh, I'm

scaring myself just writing that.

Keep your fingers crossed for me. I have to see my Rheumy on the 22nd, then

go for a TB test. After that she will be starting me on whichever she feels

will be best. So it will be a few weeks yet. I have been without my enbrel

since September and at this point I will try anything. The pain is getting

worse so I can tell the Enbrel is out of my system.

Hugs To You

Shay

Hi Shay:

I was happy to read that your GP might give you the shot in her office.

I don't see why your Rheumy wouldn't agree with that plan. A 15 min.

ride will be a piece of cake for you. Hope all goes well for you.

Hugs,

Barbara
